Make your own cupcake or cake stand to suit whatever size/color you need.
Make your own cupcake or cake stand to suit whatever size/color you need.
Begin with 2 candlestick holders. I got these at a thrift store for $2.
Spray paint them white (or any other desired color).
Select 2 plates that your cupcakes/cake will be displayed on. I got these at Walmart for $4 each.
Apply glue to candlestick holder and center plate on top. Turn upside down and place heavy book on top of candlestick to ensure a strong hold. Let cure for 24 hours. If making a cupcake stand, repeat for the other plate.
I did not glue the plates together so that I could reuse them as separate cake stands. They worked perfectly and no one at the party knew that I had made them :)
